Minutemen Basketball this week!

Mr. Slover and Ms. Sutton took the junior high science club and a group of high school science students to a Body Worlds exhibit in Peoria today. The Body Worlds exhibit is a traveling display of medically donated human specimens for research. This is a rare treat for our students, since the exhibit does not come to our area often. All students had a great experience!

BHHS and Wolf Ridge celebrated faculty/staff recognition night at James Hlafka Hall! The night started with a girls' varsity basketball contest and the 2nd game featured a boys' varsity contest. Coach Hlafka was also honored with the crowd singing happy birthday to him. Coach will be 90 years old tomorrow.


Current students who dress up in camo tonight get in for free!
Today, some of our high school students read to kindergarteners at Wolf Ridge. The kindergarten students loved making new high school friends!



That's a Minutemaid win over Dupo! It was a great team win with 8 different girls scoring tonight!
